Designs we stitched and sewed
Back in times of us
And you flew on a ride
To a fatal crash into our smiles
And I broke the rug we made
Chorus:
Flew from a magic carpet time
The ride of your life, ride of my eye
You felt the queen as I spoke to you
But then you died on a fall
From a magic carpet ride
Pictures fade from memories
Fireplaces and soft sofas
Carpets on the floor we'd fly upon
And we were not so young
That we couldn't reach the sun
And melt our wax-made wings
Chorus:
Flew from a magic carpet time
The ride of your life, ride of my eye
You felt the queen as I spoke to you
But then you died on a fall
From a magic carpet ride
I wish I could concede
That I never could've had all I need
Wish I couldn't conceive
Of fantasies I'd rather not believe
Flew down from a magic carpet time
You, just you, were in my eyes
As we flew down from a magic carpet ride
And I dove off, and you couldn't drive
And so you fell...
Chorus:
Flew from a magic carpet time
The ride of your life, ride of my eye
You felt the queen as I spoke to you
But then you died on a fall
From a magic carpet ride
A magic carpet
A magic carpet ride
You died as you fell
From a deadly carpet ride
